To say that complex data analyses are ubiquitous in the education and social sciences might be an understatement. Funding agencies and peer-review journals alike require that researchers use the most appropriate models and methods for explaining phenomena. Univariate and multivariate data structures often require the application of more rigorous methods than basic correlational or analysis of variance models. Additionally, though a vast set of resources may exist on how to run analysis, difficulties may be encountered when explicit direction is not provided as to how one should run a model and interpret results. The mission of this book is to expose the reader to advanced quantitative methods as it pertains to individual level analysis, multilevel analysis, item-level analysis, and covariance structure analysis. Each chapter is self-contained and follows a common format so that readers can run the analysis and correctly interpret the output for reporting.

How do children develop reading skills—and when these skills don’t develop typically, how can we best identify challenges and intervene? Find the answers in this comprehensive volume on dyslexia: its root causes, the most effective methods of diagnosis and treatment, and the sociopolitical factors that affect intervention. Based on presentations from the seventeenth Extraordinary Brain Symposium, this book brings together contributions from more than 50 top researchers and practitioners, who explore critical topics such as: • Early identification of children at risk for reading difficulty • The use of neuroimaging and molecular genetics to better understand the origins of dyslexia• The unique challenges to dyslexia assessment and intervention in developing countries• Important insights from computer-based simulations of developmental dyslexia• The impact of race, poverty, and linguistic differences on the accurate diagnosis of dyslexia• The current state of teacher preparation programs • Key considerations related to universal screening tools• How to scale up evidence-based interventions for reading disordersAn essential resource for researchers, graduate students, and reading specialists, this book is an authoritative synthesis of what we know about dyslexia—and what we need to know to provide better supports for struggling readers.
